The tragic events took place in one of the games of the Greek third league between Llioupoli FC and Ermionida. In the fifth minute of the match, one of the hosts’ players – Aleksandros Lampis, suffered a sudden heart attack. The footballer lost consciousness and the doctors immediately went to him.
The tragic death of the 21-year-old could have been avoided. “You so unfairly walked away”
Unfortunately, the 21-year-old could not be saved, and the Greek media reports that it was mainly due to the shameful negligence of the organizers of the match. Neither in the stadium nor in its vicinity was there a single defibrillator that could save the young footballer’s life.
The ambulance with medical services appeared at the stadium only after 20 minutes, which meant that the player had a minimal heart rate. He was taken to hospital by medics, but died shortly thereafter.
– Our Aleko, our friend, our brother … You left so unfairly. The entire team, the entire city, was mourned. We are short of words. Only unbearable pain and a cramped stomach remained – the 21-year-old’s teammates said goodbye on social media.
This is another such case in the world recently. So far, everyone can see the image of Chrisitan Eriksen, who suffered a heart attack during the Denmark-Finland match at Euro 2020. Fortunately, the story of the Dane ended well and the 29-year-old should be back on the pitch soon. .
